Tourists in Madhya Pradesh’s Satpura Tiger Reserve were left awestruck after a tiger family was spotted together during a jungle safari in the Madhai area of the reserve.
The rare sighting occurred around 5:00 am on Monday when the big cats were seen sitting in the middle of the road enjoying the sunlight.
Video footage of the incident showed the tiger family – a tigress and her four cubs – sitting in the middle of a road surrounded by tourist jeeps carefully enjoying the sight from a safe distance. “What could possibly be a better sighting than this,” an excited tourist was heard saying in Hindi.
